In a November 3, 2023 Friday sermon posted on his YouTube channel, Kuwaiti Islamic scholar Sheikh Hamad Al-Senan likened Hamas's Al-Qassam Brigades to lions emerging from their cage. He said that when they emerged from their tunnels on October 7, "the Jewish soldiers wet themselves." Al-Senan continued to claim that Rothschild and Rockefeller dreamt of establishing a Jewish state spanning from the Euphrates to the Nile, but the October 7 attacks have extinguished such dreams. He asked: "...how many lions, just like the lions of Gaza, are still dreaming of leaving their cages, between the Euphrates and the Nile?"
Hamad Al-Senan: "When the lions emerge from their cages, the foxes wet themselves. This is what happened in the Al-Aqsa Flood. When the lions of the Al-Qassam Brigades emerged from their tunnels, the Jewish soldiers wet themselves, and their captives cried under the feet of their capturers.

"Rothschild, Rockefeller, and their sons built their global economic system, in order to establish their state from the Euphrates to the Nile. They have been dreaming for many years about the fulfilment of this dream, after they brought the world to its knees.

"But Abu Ubaida came these days to say to them: 'Keep wishing'.

"If Rothschild and Rockefeller were resurrected and saw what we have seen, would they still entrain the dream of an Israel from the Euphrates to the Nile? Would they pay a single dollar to fulfil this dream? This is only when facing the lions of Gaza, but how many lions, just like the lions of Gaza, are still dreaming of leaving their cages, between the Euphrates and the Nile? What hope is left for the state the Euphrates to the Nile?"
